High-Risk Pregnancy

Newly considered high-risk

I was classified as high risk yesterday, I have a problem with my platelet count, it's been too high through my whole pregnancy. The unusual part, is it's just my platelets, this is very rare apparently. It could be from a blood disorder, or possibly chronic leukemia. I am on baby asprin, to help thin my blood. They are afraid that if my blood does clot, it will be the small veins that go to the baby and it will affect his growth.

So far, so good! He is measuring perfectly. I have to see my hematologist monthly, and I have to get my high-risk U/S once a month to make sure his growth is on.

Just thought I would introduce myself, I am 20wks, 5days pregnant with a little boy. This is my first baby! Hope to talk to you ladies, and it would be awesome if someone had the same issue.
